[0058] The specific implementation of the present application is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described here is only used to illustrate and explain the present application, and is not used to limit the present application.

[0059] The towing head of the existing towing device is usually locked by a nut, which has a large axial gap, is easy to shake and makes a lot of noise.

[0060] For this reason, Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the present application provides a novel towing assembly, which includes a towing stopper 11, a towing head 12, a first elastic stop structure and a second elastic stop structure. The towing head 12 is arranged in the towing stopper 11 along the front-to-back direction, and the first elastic stop structure is arranged between the front end of the towing head 12 and the front side of the towing stopper 11 so that the front end of the towing head 12 elastically stops backwards on the front side of the towing stopper 11. The second elastic stop structure is arranged between the rear end of the towing head 12 and the rear side of the towing stopper 11 so that the rear end of the towing head 12 elastically stops forwards on the rear side of the towing stopper 11.

[0061] In this way, by providing a first elastic stop structure between the towing gear 11 and the towing head 12, the towing head 12 elastically stops backwards on the towing gear 11, which is conducive to eliminating the axial free gap between the front end of the towing head 12 and the front side of the towing gear 11 in the non-towing situation; by providing a second elastic stop structure between the towing gear 11 and the towing head 12, the towing head 12 can be elastically stopped forwards on the towing gear 11, which is conducive to eliminating the axial free gap between the rear end of the towing head 12 and the rear side of the towing gear 11 in the non-towing situation. By eliminating the axial gap between the towing gear 11 and the towing head 12, the shaking amplitude and noise can be reduced, and the degree of collision damage between components can be reduced when the operating machine is operating to increase the service life.

[0062] It should be noted that the structural forms of the trailer stopper 11, the trailer head 12, the first elastic stop structure and the second elastic stop structure can be various. For example, the trailer stopper 11 can be a box cavity structure or a solid body structure; the towing structure of the trailer head 12 can be a hook or a pin, etc.; the first elastic stop structure and the second elastic stop structure can respectively include elastic parts such as springs or elastic stop sheets, and the first elastic stop structure and the second elastic stop structure can be respectively arranged on the trailer stopper 11 or the trailer head 12, and these structural forms should also fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0063] In some specific embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, the towing head 12 may include a towing portion 122 and a connecting shaft portion 121, the connecting shaft portion 121 is inserted into the towing gear 11, the first elastic stop structure is arranged on the axial front end of the connecting shaft portion 121, the towing portion 122 is connected to the axial rear end of the connecting shaft portion 121 and is located behind the towing gear 11, and the second elastic stop structure is arranged between the front end of the towing portion 122 and the rear side of the towing gear 11. In this way, the structure of the towing assembly can be made more reasonable and simple.

[0064] In some specific embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the axial front end of the connecting shaft portion 121 is provided with a first annular groove and a second annular groove spaced apart in the front-rear direction. The first elastic stop structure comprises an elastic retaining ring 171, a fixed circular ring 172 and an axial retaining ring 173. The elastic retaining ring 171 is sleeved on the first annular groove and abuts against the front side of the trailer stopper 11 in the axial direction backward. The fixed circular ring 172 is sleeved on the radial outer side of the elastic retaining ring 171. The axial retaining ring 173 is arranged on the second annular groove and located in front of the elastic retaining ring 171.

[0065] Among them, the elastic retaining ring 171 can be an elastic part such as a half-type spring retaining ring, a round flat retaining ring or a spring pressure plate, which is used to eliminate the axial gap between the axial front end of the towing head 12 and the front side of the towing gear 11. The fixed ring 172 is sleeved on the radial outer side of the elastic retaining ring 171 to radially limit the elastic retaining ring 171 and fix the elastic retaining ring 171 on the first ring groove in the radial direction. The axial retaining ring 173 limits the elastic retaining ring 171 and the fixed ring 172 in the axial direction to prevent the towing head 12 from escaping from the towing gear 11. By providing the elastic retaining ring 171, the fixed ring 172 and the axial retaining ring 173, the strength required for towing a trailer can be provided, and the axial free gap in the non-towing situation can be completely eliminated, which is conducive to increasing the service life of the towing assembly 1 and effectively reducing noise.

[0066] In some specific embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the trailer gear 11 is provided with a mounting cylinder 115 for the connecting shaft 121 to pass through, and a plurality of limiting holes 116 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction on the rear end surface of the cylinder wall of the mounting cylinder 115, and a ball 181 and a second elastic reset member 182 are arranged in each limiting hole. The second elastic stop structure includes a ball 181 and a second elastic reset member 182 arranged in each limiting hole, and a plurality of circumferential limiting grooves 1221 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction on the front end surface of the trailer part 122, and the plurality of circumferential limiting grooves 1221 are arranged one by one with the plurality of limiting holes 116. The connecting shaft 121 is rotatably passed through the mounting cylinder 115, and the ball 181 can be clamped in the circumferential limiting groove 1221 under the elastic force of the second elastic reset member 182.

[0067] Thus, compared with the traditional fixed trailer, the trailer assembly 1 of the present application can realize 360° free rotation. When the tractor is towing the trailer, the trailer and the tractor are often in a state of relative twisting on the road section with relatively bad road conditions. The trailer assembly 1 of the present application can be well adapted to such working conditions, especially in emergencies, such as the trailer overturning. Since the trailer assembly 1 can rotate 360°, the tractor will not overturn due to the overturning of the trailer, thereby improving the safety of the driver. In addition, the elastic positioning structure of the second elastic reset member 182 and the ball 181 is used between the trailer head 12 of the present application and the trailer gear 11, which can realize the rotation positioning function of the trailer assembly 1. At the same time, the second elastic reset member 182 also has the function of eliminating the axial clearance. The trailer assembly 1 will not rotate at will, which is safer to use and will not generate unnecessary noise due to vehicle vibration. Among them, the ball 181 can be a steel ball or other metal material ball.

[0068] The existing towing device's operating handle is usually a rotating handle. When the operator operates the rotating handle, he must complete both the rotating action and the up and down movement. Since the force direction of the rotating unlocking is different from the force direction of the lifting adjustment, when operated with one hand, it is not ergonomic, the operating handle is easy to slip off, and the operation is not safe and stable.

[0069] In view of this, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the trailer assembly of the present application also includes an operating handle 13, a locking member 14 and an intermediate transmission assembly arranged on the trailer gear 11. The trailer gear 11 is provided with a side hole 111 on the side along the left-right direction, and the operating handle 13 is arranged in the upper hole 112 and can move in the up-down direction. The upper part of the trailer gear 11 is provided with an upper hole 112, and the locking member 14 is arranged in the side hole 111 and can extend out of the side hole 111 in the left-right direction or retract into the side hole 111. The intermediate transmission assembly is arranged on the trailer gear 11, and one end of the intermediate transmission assembly is connected to the inner end of the operating handle 13, and the other end is connected to the inner end of the locking member 14.

[0070] When the operating handle 13 moves upward, the intermediate transmission assembly can drive the locking member 14 to retract into the side hole 111; when the operating handle 13 moves downward, the locking member 14 can be reset and extend out of the side hole 111. In this way, since the intermediate transmission assembly can drive the locking member 14 to retract into the side hole 111 when the operating handle 13 moves upward, the operator can unlock the locking member 14 by lifting the operating handle 13 upward, so that the unlocking force direction of the trailer assembly is the same as the lifting and adjusting force direction, making the use of the trailer assembly more ergonomic and the operation safer and more stable.

[0071] It should be noted that the shapes and structural forms of the operating handle 13, the locking member 14 and the intermediate transmission assembly can be varied. For example, the operating handle 13 can be a folding handle or a common handle, the locking member 14 can be a solid cylindrical shape or other irregular shapes, etc., the intermediate transmission assembly can be a connecting rod structure or a pulley traction rope structure, etc. These structural forms should also fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0072] In some specific embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the intermediate transmission assembly may include a rotating connecting rod 151 and a first elastic reset member 154. The rotating connecting rod 151 may include a first rod portion and a second rod portion connected to each other, and the angle between the central axis of the first rod portion and the central axis of the second rod portion may be arranged at an acute angle. The connecting portion between the first rod portion and the second rod portion is rotatably connected to the trailer gear member 11, such as Figure 4 As shown, the connection portion between the first rod portion and the second rod portion is provided with a rotating pin hole, and the rotating connecting rod 151 is rotatably connected to the trailer gear 11 through a rotating pin shaft passing through the rotating pin hole, that is, the rotating connecting rod 151 can rotate around the rotating pin shaft.

[0073] The end of the first rod portion away from the connection portion is provided with a first strip hole 1511 extending axially thereof, and the inner end of the operating handle 13 is movably connected to the rotating connecting rod 151 through a first pin 152 movably arranged in the first strip hole 1511, that is, the first pin 152 is respectively arranged in the inner end of the operating handle 13 and the first strip hole 1511, and can move in the first strip hole 1511 along the extension direction of the first strip hole 1511. The end of the second rod portion away from the connection portion is provided with a second strip hole 1512 extending axially thereof, and the inner end of the locking member 14 is movably connected to the rotating connecting rod 151 through a second pin 153 movably arranged in the second strip hole 1512, that is, the second pin 153 is respectively arranged in the inner end of the locking member 14 and the second strip hole 1512, and can move in the second strip hole 1512 along the extension direction of the second strip hole 1512. The “inside” here refers to a position relatively close to the center point of the trailer gear member 11 , and the “outside” here refers to a position relatively far from the center point of the trailer gear member 11 .

[0074] So, like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, when the operator lifts the operating handle 13 upward, the first rod portion is driven to drive the rotating link 151 to rotate, and the second rod portion drives the locking member 14 to move inward to retract into the side hole 111, thereby realizing the unlocking function by applying force in the up and down directions.

[0075] In addition, the first elastic reset member 154 is disposed in the side hole 111, one end of the first elastic reset member 154 abuts against the trailer gear 11, and the other end of the first elastic reset member 154 abuts against the inner end of the locking member 14. In this way, when the operating handle 13 moves upward, the locking member 14 retracts to the side hole 111 and compresses the first elastic reset member 154; when the operating handle 13 moves downward, the first elastic reset member 154 resets and pushes the locking member 14 to extend out of the side hole 111 again, and the up and down adjustment operation is fast and convenient.

[0076] Alternatively, if Figure 5 As shown, the locking member 14 can be a locking pin shaft, and the inner end of the locking member 14 includes a hollow cylindrical cavity 141, and the first elastic return member 154 is inserted in the hollow cylindrical cavity 141. The upper cylindrical wall and the lower cylindrical wall of the hollow cylindrical cavity 141 are respectively provided with an avoidance hole 142 for the second rod portion to move, and the front and rear cylindrical walls of the hollow cylindrical cavity 141 are respectively provided with pin holes 143, and the second pin member 153 is inserted into the pin hole 143, the first elastic return member 154 and the second strip hole 1512.

[0077] Alternatively, in some other specific embodiments, the intermediate transmission assembly may include a traction rope, a fixed pulley, and an elastic reset member, wherein the two ends of the traction rope are respectively connected to the inner end of the operating handle 13 and the inner end of the locking member 14, and are wound around the fixed pulley. The elastic reset member is arranged in the side hole 111, one end of which abuts against the towing gear 11, and the other end abuts against the inner end of the locking member 14. In this way, when the operating handle 13 moves upward, the locking member 14 is pulled back to the side hole 111 and the elastic reset member is compressed by the traction rope when the operating handle 13 moves upward; when the operating handle 13 moves downward, the elastic reset member is reset and pushes the locking member 14 to extend out of the side hole 111 again, and the unlocking function of applying force in the up and down directions can also be realized.

[0078] Optionally, the trailer gear 11 has a middle chamber 113 and a side chamber 114 that are isolated from each other, the middle chamber 113 is located in the middle of the trailer gear 11, and the side chamber 114 is arranged outside the middle chamber 113 in the left-right direction, the front end of the trailer head 12 is inserted into the middle chamber 113, and the intermediate transmission assembly is arranged in the side chamber 114. Figure 3As shown, the trailer gear 11 includes a middle chamber 113 and two side chambers 114. A side chamber 114 is provided on each of the left and right sides of the middle chamber 113. The three chambers are isolated from each other and do not affect each other. An upper hole 112 is provided on the top of the trailer gear 11 along the left and right sides respectively. The two inner ends of the operating handle 13 extend into the two upper holes 112 respectively. The two upper holes 112 are connected to the two side chambers 114 respectively. Each side chamber 114 is provided with an intermediate transmission assembly. The two inner ends of the operating handle 13 are connected to the intermediate transmission assemblies in the two side chambers 114 respectively. The two side holes 111 are connected to the two side chambers 114 respectively. The inner ends of the locking member 14 in the side holes 111 on the left and right sides of the trailer gear 11 are connected to the intermediate transmission assemblies in the two side chambers 114 respectively. In this way, the intermediate transmission assembly is arranged in the side chamber 114, which avoids damage or jamming during use and makes the structure more reliable.

[0079] Optionally, the openings of the middle chamber 113 and the side chamber 114 are both facing the front side, and the trailer assembly 1 further includes a front cover plate 16, which is disposed on the front side of the trailer gear 11 and covers the middle chamber 113 and the side chamber 114. In this way, the intermediate transmission assembly and its associated motion mechanism can be sealed to avoid exposure to harsh working environments, and will not be stuck or damaged due to factors such as mud and iron filings.

[0080] In some specific embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the mounting cylinder 115 is connected to the middle chamber 113, and the axial front end of the connecting shaft 121, the elastic retaining ring 171, the fixing ring 172 and the axial retaining ring 173 are arranged in the middle chamber 113, which can avoid being exposed to harsh working environments and will not be damaged by factors such as sludge and iron filings.

[0081] In some specific embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the operating handle 13 can be a folding handle and includes a folding rod 131 and two vertical connecting rods 132. The folding rod 131 is inverted U-shaped and the two lower ends are rotatably connected to the upper ends of the two vertical connecting rods 132 through third pins 133, and the lower ends of the two vertical connecting rods 132 are respectively connected to the two intermediate transmission components. In this way, the structure of the trailer assembly 1 can be made more compact and reasonable, and the operating handle 13 is a hand-held joystick that can be operated with one hand.

[0082] The second aspect of the present application further provides a towing device, which includes the above-mentioned towing assembly 1. Since the towing device includes the above-mentioned towing assembly 1, it also has all the technical effects brought by the towing assembly 1, so it will not be repeated.

[0083] Optionally, the towing device further includes a towing support bracket 2. The towing support bracket 2 may be provided with a guide rail portion 21 extending in the up-down direction, and the guide rail portion 21 may be provided with a plurality of clamping limit holes 22 arranged at intervals in the up-down direction. The side of the towing stopper 11 cooperates with the guide rail portion 21 and can move up and down along the guide rail portion 21, and the locking member 14 can be limitedly cooperated with the clamping limit holes 22. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the trailer support bracket 2 includes a left longitudinal frame body and a right longitudinal frame body that can be connected to the rear axle housing 5 and are relatively spaced apart. The left longitudinal frame body and the right longitudinal frame body are respectively provided with guide rails 21 on the opposite inner sides. The two side parts of the trailer stopper 11 are correspondingly matched with the two guide rails 21. When the operating handle 13 is pulled up, the locking members 14 on both sides of the trailer assembly 1 are retracted into the side holes 111, and the trailer assembly 1 can move up and down along the guide rails 21 to adjust the height of the trailer assembly 1. When the locking members 14 on both sides of the trailer assembly 1 extend out of the side holes 111, the trailer assembly 1 can be clamped on the clamping limit hole 22, thereby achieving position fixation in the up and down direction.

[0084] In some specific embodiments, the towing device may further include a towing rod bracket 3 and a towing rod 4, wherein the towing rod 4 is inserted into the towing support bracket 2 along the front-rear direction. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the trailer support bracket 2 is provided with a support plate and a limit plate, the limit plate is located above the support plate, and the limit plate and the support plate are respectively connected between the bottom of the left longitudinal frame and the right longitudinal frame. The traction rod 4 is arranged in the guide space surrounded by the support plate, the left longitudinal frame, the limit plate and the right longitudinal frame along the front-back direction. The support plate can support the traction rod 4, so that the force of the traction rod 4 is more uniform, the overall strength of the traction structure is higher, and the performance of the traction structure is effectively improved, and the limit plate can limit the traction rod 4 and the trailer assembly 1 respectively. The traction rod bracket 3 is arranged in front of the trailer support bracket 2 and is assembled and connected with the traction rod 4 through a pin shaft. The traction rod 4 can realize axial telescopic hooking of the trailer, which can meet different types of trailers, wherein the traction rod bracket 3 is used to achieve fixation. The trailer assembly 1 is suitable for transportation or operation occasions, such as transporting agricultural products, farming, etc. The traction structure is suitable for occasions where it is necessary to drag the operation equipment for operation, such as dragging the rice transplanter, plow, etc. for agricultural operations.

[0085] Optionally, elastic buffer plates may be provided on the support plate, the left longitudinal frame, the limit plate and the right longitudinal frame relatively close to the towing rod 4, thereby reducing the degree of collision damage between the towing rod 4 and the towing support bracket 2, further reducing the operating noise of the towing device, and increasing the service life of the components.

[0086] The third aspect of the present application also provides a working machine, which includes the above-mentioned trailer. Since the working machine includes the above-mentioned trailer, it also has all the technical effects brought by the trailer, so it will not be repeated. Among them, the working machine is mainly used as an agricultural working machine, and can also be used as an engineering working machine. The agricultural working machine can be, for example, a tractor, a harvester, etc.

[0087] Alternatively, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the working machine further comprises a rear axle housing 5, and the towing support bracket 2 and the drawbar bracket 3 are respectively assembled on the rear axle housing 5 of the tractor.

[0088] It should be noted that the structure of the rear axle housing 5 is well known to those skilled in the art and does not belong to the core improvement part of the present application, so it will not be described here in detail.

[0089] The following is a brief description of the working principle of the towing device of the present application: the operating handle 13 is folded to be vertically upward and lifted upward, the vertical connecting rod 132 drives the rotating connecting rod 151 to rotate around the rotating pin, the locking member 14 moves in the left and right directions, compressing the first elastic reset member 154, and when the locking member 14 is completely retracted into the side hole 111, the towing assembly 1 can move up and down on the towing support bracket 2 along the double-sided slide rails. After moving to the predetermined position, hold the towing assembly 1 with one hand and release the operating handle 13 with the other hand, the locking member 14 is pushed out by the first elastic reset member 154 and enters the clamping limit hole 22 of the left and right longitudinal frames to complete the position adjustment. Folding the operating handle 13 90° can save more space.

[0090] In summary, the unlocking force direction of the trailer assembly of the present application is the same as the lifting and lowering force direction, which is more ergonomic and safer and more stable to operate. The trailer head 12 of the present application and the trailer gear 11 use an elastic positioning structure combining a second elastic reset member 182 and a ball 181, which can realize the 360° free rotation and rotation positioning function of the trailer assembly 1. At the same time, the second elastic reset member 182 also has the function of eliminating the axial clearance. The trailer assembly 1 will not rotate at will, which is safer to use and will not generate unnecessary noise due to vehicle vibration. In addition, by setting a sealed chamber in the trailer gear 11, the motion mechanism can be completely sealed, and it will not be stuck or damaged due to factors such as sludge and iron filings, and the structure is more stable and reliable.
